2 pages., via database., Incentive advertising, the offering of
merchandise to encourage the purchase,
sale, or dealing in a particular product,
is an important part of the food industry's advertising effort. Approximately I
out of every 4 food promotion dollars is
spent on some form of an incentive offer. Coupons, which, by contrast reward
the purchaser with a discount, and
media advertisements which are both informative and image creating, account
for the remaining portion of the food
advertising bill.
